What momo rims do I have on my car? haha

Hi all, posted this in the wheel/tire/suspension section with no response. I think there is a chance someone here knows what these are.

I got these rims, but only got 3 of them. So I just installed the 2 on the rear because ffoooorrr some reason I seem to wear down my rear tires 10x faster than the front.

Anyways, I am looking to find another .... 2 more rims so my car doesn't look so weird. They are momo, I think 17inch (1 inch bigger than what ever stock is)

Any help would be awesome. I like their old school look.

Ugly ones. ebay those monstrosities and get yourself something else. Or... get a couple of them studded and use them as winter tires.

They are old school rims.
One of the first wheels in their line.
I personally likes quasars if people remember those wheels
only if they made 18 X 8 or larger wheels back then.

They are just known as MOMO "stars".
Yeah, they are old school.
I wish I could get my hands on a set, but in 17" size, which is either non-existant or extremely rare.

Those are called Stars. They were one of the first in the Momo line up.
I had them many many many moons ago lol. since then, Ive been a Momo *****. I had the IDEA, Quasar, and now the Sports, Which will die on my RX lol, here is a pic of them, they are 17 by 7.5 front and 17 by 8.5 rear. they were Chrome and now they are speedboat silver.

The OEM wheels on this FC actually look cleaner than those MOMO's. But I could be wrong, maybe with a little polishing they would look more appealing.

Looks like the rim on the passenger side has a pretty bad dent on the lip.
